Jour Ferié Team
THE DESIGNERS
NATHALIE ELHARRAR & JOHANE COLLET
In a design career spanning over two decades, Nathalie has headed accessory design for Balmain, Michel Klein, Thierry Mugler and Gallery Lagerfeld.
As a freelancer since 2006 she has contributed to the accessory collections for Paule Ka, d’Anne Valérie Hash, Camper, and Heschung. She has also been a professor at the Institut Français de la Mode since 2001.
Johane is a graduate of Polimoda where he fell in love with shoe design.
In 2007 he interned at Larare, outrageously feminine luxury shoes created by Nathalie in 2007.
As a freelancer, Johane designed for Chelsea Paris and Schutz… Together, Nathalie and Johane founded Jour Férié out of a shared passion for excellence in design, a decade long friendship based on the tribal instincts of creative creatures, an intolerance of mediocrity, a flair for laughter and a simple obsession with shoes. Their goal: create an affordable luxury brand with trans-generational appeal that is at once elegant and fun— a break away from conformity, boredom and the usual.
